520    "Not a day goes by that humans aren't exposed to toxins in
       our environment--be it at home, in the car, or workplace. 
       But what about those toxic places and items that aren't 
       marked? Why are we warned about some toxic spaces' 
       substances and not others? The essays in Inevitably Toxic 
       consider the exposure of bodies in the United States, 
       Canada and Japan to radiation, industrial waste, and 
       pesticides. Research shows that appeals to uncertainty 
       have led to social inaction even when evidence, e.g. the 
       link between carbon emissions and global warming, stares 
       us in the face. In some cases, influential scientists, 
       engineers and doctors have deliberately "manufactured 
       doubt" and uncertainty but as the essays in this 
       collection show, there is often no deliberate deception. 
       We tend to think that if we can't see contamination and 
       experts deem it safe, then we are okay. Yet, having 
       knowledge about the uncertainty behind expert claims can 
       awaken us from a false sense of security and alert us to 
       decisions and practices that may in fact cause harm."--
